    Help NUVI 255W map updates for a dummy

    I just purchased one at a thrift store and have never upgraded a garmin. The tutorials dont seem to help me. There are so many files posted. Some I can download and others seem to be for members of the file sharing site only. I have no idea what is needed and where to get it. Then I don't know what to do with it after it's found. The TOM TOM upgrades have been fairly easy to understand but there are so many terms and acronyms that I am totally confused. Thanks for any help for this 63 year old dummy.
